Dear Team,

To fulfil the objectives of the team, it is essential for a team to have its goals, vision and task.
Every member of the team is treated fairly. The company's policy to implement and follow.

Best Regards,

Question 2 (PC2.4):
What opportunities exist for your team to collaborate with each other and with
external stakeholders?
This allows external stakeholders to discover early flaws in the team. To minimise misunderstanding, be
consistent in decision-making. From the beginning of cooperation, we should create confidence.

Question 3 (PC2.3):
As a team member, what would you do in the following scenarios:
a. In one of your team meetings, you could sense some argument between
team members. What would you do?
Be your team's pacificator and halt them argue that they can cool each other before they resume
their meeting.

b. A new team member, who is an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, has
joined the team. How would you facilitate the team to ensure that the needs of
all your team members are being met?
In order to avoid misunderstandings, the extremely crucial duty is to communicate well in the team. Give
them several assignments and monitor the status of the assignment you have given them each time.

Question 4 (KE2):
Describe different methods and styles that you use to communicate with your
team members.
As a technique of communicating with my team members, I employ group discussions or meetings.
In a team this approach we may develop new ideas and share our expertise with the team. This
strategy is really effective.

Question 5 (KE3):
How would you communicate with individuals who:
a. are from a different culture,
b. have special needs/disabilities.

The fundamental technique to interact with them is to accept their ideals, since they are different, they can never
invalidate their sentiments. Be open-minded and welcome your recommendations. It is possible that we have diverse
cultures with particular needs/disabilities, and that we yet have the same objective in one team.

inbound calls. Considering this series of events, the CEO at Sunshine Call Centre decided

Your team members tried the above plan for a month, and some of the team members are
not happy with this plan. Below are the issues that they faced.

Aaron Kite
Aaron finds it very difficult to manage inbound and outbound calls for 2 companies, he
feels that he isn’t trained enough and doesn’t have enough product knowledge. He feels
burdened and wants to quit.
William Jake
Youi Insurance is not happy with William’s quotes as the quotes that he sends out
are mostly wrong. This has created a lot of trouble for Youi because customers are
complaining about the wrong quotes.
Kate Rogers
Workload has increased and Kate Rogers has realised that the workstation ergonomics
is not good. It has had an impact on her physical health, also an increased workload has
affected her mental health.
Stefanie Mills
Stefanie has faced a lot of unethical behaviour from customers who she cold calls. She
feels upset and feels terrible.
Required:
As a team leader, you are required to explain what you would do to ensure that all these
challenges are appropriately addressed.

Scenario 3 (PC3.3):
After three months of performance based on the ideas suggested by you for the above
problems, the team seems to be running more smoothly. You now want to develop targets
for the team. You have called upon a meeting and want to discuss with them the targets
that they can handle.
Required:
What facilitation techniques would you use to ensure that the team comes up with
achievable targets?
